S and Z Sounds in EnglishOnline version

Yes/No: s vs z in forms and plurals

by Joshua Masis
1

In monosyllabic words, the plural ending -s can be pronounced as /z/ as in 'dogs'.

2

In the third person singular of the simple present, the suffix -s is pronounced as /s/ after a voiceless final sound (for example, 'he walks').

3

In multisyllabic words, the plural ending -s is always pronounced as /s/.

4

In the third person singular of the simple present, the suffix -s is pronounced as /z/ after a voiced final sound (for example, 'he runs').

5

In plural nouns, the ending -s can be pronounced as /ɪz/ after sibilant sounds (as in 'wishes' or 'buzzes').

6

The third person singular -s is always pronounced /z/ in every verb form.

7

The word 'dogs' ends with the /s/ sound, not /z/.

8

In monosyllabic words, the plural ending -s can be pronounced as /s/ as in 'cats'.

9

The /s/ sound can only appear in monosyllabic words.

10

In the simple present, the third person singular form never adds an /s/ sound.
